Steps
- Every run, append one line to
memory-log.md: time, available MB, chrome process count, load average. - Warn below 1.5 GB available.
- On the 2nd warning in a row: pause the reply rotation and send one alert. Later warnings just log 'already paused'.
- Log the top memory users so a human can decide what to close.
- Never kill processes automatically; a human makes that call.
What worked / what failed

Workedone log line per run made the trend easy to read without extra tools.
